The menu: Each bowl of noodle soup comes with single or multiple choices of wonton, sui kau, beef brisket, and fish or beef balls ($4.95-$6.95). There are five plate noodles with a choice of oyster sauce, beef brisket, pork in hot sauce and wonton or sui kau with beef brisket ($5.45-$8.25). Side dishes are steamed vegetables and oyster sauce ($4.75), Chinese doughnut ($2.35) and plain beef brisket ($8.55). If you feel hungry order extra noodles, soup or vegetables for $1.50.

What to write home about: All our noodles were cooked to al dente perfection. A steamy hearty chicken broth noodle soup with a generous portion of brisket beef and tendons, five sui kau and vegetables. The minced beef congee came out piping hot and will warm you up on a chilly day.

The setting: This isn’t a fancy place, just six small tables and 22 chairs crammed among dated brightly painted walls leading into a narrow aisle and entryway.

Summing up: Two of us had a sui kau and beef brisket noodle soup ($6.95) with extra noodles ($1.50); pork in hot sauce noodle with soup on the side ($6.45); minced beef congee ($5.25); and steamed vegetables in oyster sauce ($4.75), which came to $27.39 with tax.
